Education Calculator
Plan for your child's higher education
Conversation Mode
Guided planning with one question at a time.
What does this calculator do?
Inflates today’s education cost to a future year and calculates the SIP needed to build that amount.
When should I use it?
Use it when planning for higher education, especially when education inflation is likely to outpace general inflation.
What assumptions are made?
- Current education cost is inflated annually with an education-specific inflation rate.
- The required corpus is then funded through a monthly SIP growing at the assumed return rate.
- Taxes, scholarships and loans are not modelled.
Things to remember
- Education inflation can be meaningfully higher than regular CPI inflation.
- Starting early can reduce the monthly SIP burden significantly.
